The Price of a Vacation

You brought me to have to snack sushi in Penang where chao keow teow would be a better option
But strangely the feeling was different
I ate laksa and ice kacang under a tremendously hot weather at a stall
Where I normally does in an air-conditioned shopping mall
Bathing in sweat must have caused the feeling the different

We watched drama for hours at home
We talked about our new home
We talked about our future plans
You brought me to taste and feel the local food and culture
I started to realized what made the similar and different activities so different

I slept till the sun rise up high
I never enjoyed doing that but I thought it was really great to have done that once in a while
We talked about the future and the constraints

When we were enjoying the wind on the ferry
I noticed now I could not remember what I was thinking for the moment
When I walked up to the pagoda and had myself staring at the religious symbols
I asked myself what is my direction

Perhaps for many years or even years ago I already have a direction but was afraid to pursue
Cause when I asked myself again, I realized it was something that I have once boldly fought for
